Hafod y Ysbytty

Hafod y Ysbytty is an L-plan house consisting of two inter-connecting single-storey sections. It is built from rubble and has renewed slate roofs. Each section features a large, reduced near-central chimney stack, indicative of its former lobby entry plan, with weather-coursing and plain cornices on the chimneys. There is also a similar chimney at the eastern gable of the northern section. The main entrance is located on the inner southern side and includes a modern glazed door beneath a re-set arched oak lintel inscribed in Greek with the words 'Peace to this house.' There are modern windows flanking the outer openings, and a French window with stepped access leads to the rear. Additional modern windows include one set within a large gabled dormer. A 19th-century porch addition is present at the eastern gable end, featuring a pitched slate roof. The eastern section has two more glazed entrances with small early lights to the right, a long 19th-century catslide extension at the rear, and external stepped access to an upper boarded entrance at the southern gable end.

Inside, two cruck trusses remain in the former hall of the northern wing, showcasing arched braces and pierced quatrefoil ornamentation. There is a large fireplace with a chamfered bressummer and a rough beamed ceiling. The original post-and-panel dais partition screen is intact, featuring good outer arched-headed openings. Stone corkscrew stairs provide access to both central fireplaces.
